    Listen Mr Mariner, stop using imperial units. For sail area 73,260 sq ft you should use/say 6,806 m2. Visually lower number gives better understanding of the sail sizes and power of the ship. 73,260 does not speak to average person imagination. I hate imperial system... Obsolete and stupid...

    Yes, & underlying it , for anyone with an eye for history is the RN's reputation for aggression,, Cochrane is a fine inspiration, but he operated in a very different 'information space', often several weeks lag to the nearest admiral.. independant action of a scope that would be unthinkable today, plus he would maybe also have a confirmed reputation as a twitter revolutionary ?

    Very nice video! I was impressed with the animation and liked the description of the ship’s landing signal system, which I wasn’t familiar with. A useful bit of information not mentioned related to the unique identification marking system of IJN carrier aircraft and how it visually linked aircraft with their respective ships. Regarding the targeted Hawaiian airfields, the main US Army Air Force base was Hickam Field and “Kaneohe Field” was actually Naval Air Station Kaneohe.

    This is excellent. However, I really feel the battle can't be fully understood without knowing the Via Dolorosa the Russians trod in somehow coming over 18,000 miles to meet the Japanese in the Straits of Tsushima. Put simply, the Russian fleet was the worst on the high seas, an "archaeological collection of naval architecture" (to quote the bitter words of its commander Adm. Rozhestvensky), manned by ill-trained and demoralized conscripts led by often incompetent and untrustworthy officers (whose presence accounts for the competent and trustworthy Rozhestvensky's temper, which only grew more vile as he shepherded this ragtag gang of lunatic cats to its doom). The result of the Russians' ill-preparedness can be seen in this video's schematic view of the battle. To be blunt, the Japanese know what they're doing; the Russians don't. Thus the former systematically and mercilessly slaughter the latter, no matter how hard the Russians try to fight.

    what angle do you put the Titanic at when it split? looking at the animations that seems like 30+ angle which is incorrect if you follow James Cameron Titanic "1997" version.

    Sinking ships displace so much water that they create a suction effect. Dragging smaller things around them into the depths. Add that to the freezing temperatures of the water. It is feasible that anyone still alive after the ship sank was too weak to cry out.
